Default Honey powder

I was tuning around eBay, looking for a honey. I came across a number of
offerings for "honey powder". What exactly is this? If reconstituted, is
it comparable to the real deal? Are there any common uses for it as a
powder?

It looks like it might be useful for things like backpacking.

I am sure I will get a lot of flack for this but... Back in the 1980's, I
purchased a sex toy/aid/whatever you want to call it called Kama Sutra
powder. It was actually edible honey powder. I can't remember where I
purchased it now or why since I dislike the taste of honey and I am also
allergic to feathers. The applicator for it was a little feather duster.
The idea was to dust it on the other person and then lick it off. Turned
out that it wasn't really for me although my BF at the time thought it was a
tad novel.

However, a quick search online says that it is suitable for long term
storage type food. Actually *any* honey is suitable for that since from
what I have read about it, it never goes bad. Might get crystals in it but
heating it will melt them.

Hahahahahaha. I never needed the addition of added flavors to motivate
me. I spend hours every day thinking about exactly that, and often
it's more than thinking. The Bonobos used to play a song...


Wash You Like A Cat

Ev'ry inch now
Ev'ry inch now

CHORUS
I wanna wash you like a cat
Whatchya have to say to that?

All over

Resistance fades away
it's all over
I'm gonna get to you
One kiss and I'll say
it's all over
I'm gonna get to you

(chorus)

Any day now

I'm gonna get to you
any day now
Some dreams do come true
I'm gonna get to you
any day now
Alright, down on you

(chorus)

Ev'ry inch now
Ev'ry inch now

I'm gonna wash you like a cat
Whatchya have to say to that?

And, this post is just too funny. It's the last thing I'd give you crap
about. Here are a couple of paragraphs from the novel:



***********************

"I was self-aware early on, and when I was, I think, four, there was a
girl the same age, and we quite naively investigated each others bodies,
and it was pretty thorough. Around that same time, I saw a thing that
hit my psyche like a medicine ball in the chest. Through the slats of
some wood shutters, I saw my brother kissing a girl, and really kissing.
I thought, 'that!'"

"And you've been orally fixated on female bodies ever since." Winter
said it without inquiry. "It's been how many days, and you've managed
to work your tongue into every little nook and cranny, except my ears,
which turned out to be too tickly, eyes, which are an obvious, 'no,' and
my nose, which is almost surprising, but I'd prefer you not. It
wouldn't cross the line of what I'd be willing to let you do, but I
wouldn't enjoy it, and I have enjoyed all the rest. A woman likes to
feel delicious. At least I think most of us do."

***********************

That was the most autobiographical thing in the book. I'm not much
interested in anything I can't put in my mouth. Girls, food, beer...

She wasn't talking about putting it there, but all over, hence the feather
duster. With A partner you were attracted to, doesn't it seem like fun?

It amazes me that there are women I've talked to, quite a few, who have
parts of their bodies that have never been kissed, and some of them are
glad that it is the case. That is so completely foreign to me.

Bryan: So you mean, nobody's ever kissed on your feet for a half an hour,
or an hour?

Woman: Nobody has ever kissed my feet at all.

Bryan: That's sad.

Woman: Why?

Apparently there are women who do not want their feet (and I assume some
other parts of their bodies) loved on. Sure glad none of my girlfriends
were like that.

This is a popular Korean sweetener. It's made from dried agave nectar.
You'll find it at the local Korean mart. The also sell a cactus honey
made of the same stuff that looks similar to honey. My guess is that
you're better off backpacking sugar.
